#1

Anyone else have this problem using the engine after succesfully build it?
If i open a blank project or the puzzle template it works fine, but if i try to open an existing 5.0 project or use any other epic templates to create a new project the engine crashes at 95% loading with this error

This actually happens on all 5.x branches, even 5.0

#3

C:\UnrealEngine\Engine\Source\Runtime\Core\Private\HAL
ConsoleManager.cpp :556

// check(IsInGameThread());

This happens to me too when building the development editor.
It may happen because the check code is faulty.
you can try DO_CHECK 0 in the UE_BUILD_DEVELOPMENT section of:-
Engine\Source\Runtime\Core\Public\Misc\Build.h

or remove the line

check(IsInGameThread());
Engine\Source\Runtime\Core\Private\HAL\ConsoleManager.cpp : Line 556

Then rebuild the editor.
I am not a programmer, so it may break something else.

#5

doing this actually fixes the problem, not sure if it causes anything else

#6

It may be useful to follow the updates for the main branch.

There’s an open pull request that was created 10 days ago that mitigates this issue: https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/pull/8738
